Thread Name: What's the weather like where you are?
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are?
Same here Steve. Same temperature and blazing sun from a cloudless sky. (But not the humidity, thank goodness)
Neighbour-across-the-road came to trim back the two honeysuckles at our front door, and (as she hilariously put it) "Oi s'll trim yer bush 'n orl", meaning the large shrub she calls the 'diarrhoeia' (Spirea). She's the same age as me (!) but toiled away with a stepladder, shears, secateurs and shovel. She was soaked in sweat and I kept begging her to stop. Her face was bright red. But Norfolk people born to the land never give in. They keep a-troshin'.
I was exhausted just watching! (Husband was toiling away too at the school where he cleans, in mask and visor)
It is indeed unusual weather for September, but I like it.
